Abstract
Madelung's disease is an extremely rare disorder of unknown etiology characterized by multiple, non-encapsulated, infiltrative lipomas located symmetrically on the trunk, neck, and proximal parts of the limbs. Approximately 200 patients have been reported in the medical literature. In this case report we present an extremely unusual case of multiple symmetric lipomatosis compatible with Madelung's disease.Entities:
